As much as I love the smoothness of plastic beads I am glad to see them being phased out because its worth it. The Great Lakes are very beautiful places. Hopefully scientists will be able to develop biodegradable plastic.

Regarding the plastic beads… If they truly are damaging to the environment I’m all for removing them from scrubs and such. I do worry they will be replaced with ground walnut shells though, which can be harsh on skin. I stick with a daily BHA treatment and then a wash rag every few days in shower to remove any flaky skin.
